  • Abstract in English : The increasing concern for the quality of life in urban areas, particularly in the inner cities, has led to a growing awareness among arboriculturists of the functional value of urban trees. From the limited perspective of the ornamental value of the specimen tree has developed a wider appreciation of the contribution of urban forests to improving environmental quality. This article is dealing with ecological aspects of urban trees.
